Common questions in Garnlydan
What information do you need?
Send photos through the quote form or call 0345 017 0787, and we will do the rest.
Will it make a mess?
Dust sheets and masking go down before we start, and tidy up before we leave.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Generally, yes. A repair skips the removal, fitting and redecorating. We’ll be honest if it’s not worth it.
Can you repair a burn in a worktop?
In most cases. Send us a picture and we will tell you what’s possible.
Do you cover Garnlydan?
Yes, we do. Repair technicians travel to Garnlydan from across the region, with no extra charge for travel.

No. Our quotes include travel, and we charge the same wherever you are.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. See our accreditations page for the full list.
Is my repair covered?
Yes: twelve months. If there’s a problem with the work in that time, we come back and put it right.
Worktop repair in Garnlydan, done in place
Each type of worktop needs a different approach: we fill and pattern laminate, fill and polish quartz and stone, and sand and refinish wood. The goal is always a repair that blends in. Common call-outs are for chips in quartz or granite and burns from hot pans, on quartz, granite & marble and solid wood.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by a one-year guarantee in Garnlydan and across Blaenau Gwent.

Work for landlords and builders
We are used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we will arrange it.
For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.
What affects the price in Garnlydan
Repairs from £95. There’s no area surcharge for Garnlydan. The price reflects:
- Whether old repairs or coatings need taking off
- Doing more than one item at once
- How hard the colour is to match
- The size and number of damaged areas
Rather than charging by the hour, we price the whole job up front. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
How to get a fixed quote
Phone pictures are fine. Just make sure we can see:
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A picture taken from further back
- The material, if you know it
Getting a price is easy: snap the damage close up and then the entire item, send them over with your postcode, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote. There’s no charge for the quote and no obligation.
Different materials, different repairs
Laminate
Laminate is a printed surface over a board. We fill the damage and recreate the pattern.
Solid surface
Solid surface materials are uniform throughout, so scratches and burns can frequently be sanded out and refinished.
What we cannot put right
We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Failed support under the worktop
- Water-swollen laminate
- Discolouration deep in quartz
If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think before booking.
Materials we work on in Garnlydan
- Granite & marble
- Solid surface (such as Corian)

DIY repairs versus a professional job
What a professional repair adds is preparation, colour matching and finishing. We clean and key the area properly, mix the colour to your surface and finish it to the same sheen, then guarantee it for a year.
We understand the appeal of fixing it yourself. The trouble is that kit repairs frequently look fine at first and then fail, and the old filler has to come out before a proper repair.

Aftercare tips
Most damage we see is avoidable. A few tips:
- Always use a trivet for hot pans
- Clean spills straight away
- Take care with heavy pans near edges
- Chopping boards prevent scratches
Wipe water away from joints and around the sink, especially on laminate and wood.
A chip on an edge can grow, and water can reach the core of laminate. Repairing it early stops that.
How it works
Visits start with a quick look at the job together, so there are no surprises. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. You can expect it to take a few hours, and we’ll keep you posted as we go.
- First we look at the damage and what the worktop is made of.
- We clean the area and prepare the edges of the damage.
- A filler that suits the material goes in, and missing edges are rebuilt.
- We match the colour and pattern by hand.
- Finally we seal or finish the area to match.
Getting ready for the visit
- Open a window if you can
- Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
- Clear toiletries, mats and anything else from around the area
Getting a price
No survey visit is needed: we price from pictures. Use the quote form, or ring 0345 017 0787 to talk it through.
